About the host
Hosted by John
We purchased this lovely property in 2008 after we first saw it and fell in love with it. As retired teachers we want to share the house with others and let them get to know the wonderful countryside and coasts of Brittany
Why they chose this property
We are in the countryside but not isolated, have a lovely outlook across to fields and woodlands; at night the skies are dark, free of light pollution. Just down the road is the village of Carnoet, and not far away from the towns of Callac and Carhaix with excellent hypermarkets and restaurants. There is a great choice of sandy beaches in lovely settings on the north coast, an attractive drive along quiet roads to the area around Locquirec, and further afield the beaches of the west coast, one of which is a ten mile stretch of sand, and the south coast near Concarneau are about an hour's drive.
What makes this property unique
Comfort, peace, relaxation - a home from home in wonderful countryside close to one of the most remarkable tourist locations in France, the Valley of the Saints, which last year had over 400,000 visitors, yet remains an idyllic atmospheric hilltop with over 100 giant granite statues in Eurpoe's answer to Easter Island, and views far into the distance in every direction. Our visitors love the level of equipment and forethought in catering for their needs, from the fully equipped kitchen to the hairdryer, games for children and adults, garden hammock, barbecue, sun umbrella, and French and English television services.
